“Amid growing evidence that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and the Greenland Ice Sheet are becoming less stable in the face of atmospheric and ocean warming, this research strengthens the argument that ice sheets are stable by a narrow margin that incorporates many different factors including ocean circulation.”

“In the last 96 hours, we have shipped 440,000 sheets of plywood into the west coast of Florida, 30,000 generators, 1.2 million batteries and 150 truckloads of flashlights. Those are some of the items that are just flying off the shelves right now.”

“Before [referees] make those decisions, they should take a look at that ice. It could be the worst sheet of ice I've ever seen. It's hard to make quality plays for quality players on a sheet like that. It's not acceptable. It may be the same for both teams, but it's not right.”
Trent Yawney
“That's how close things are sometimes. That goes in and all of a sudden it's a fresh sheet of ice for (overtime).”
Jerry York
“The only thing we can think of is they were dumped here by the glaciers when the continental ice sheet melted away in this area 11,000 years ago.”
Alan Hildebrand
“The story is still unfolding, but the dramatic changes at the margins are quite striking. I expect increased ice-sheet discharge to continue, with the result being further acceleration in sea-level rise.”
Robert Bindschadler
“The ocean is the vehicle by which this heat is getting to the edges of the ice sheets, so if you increase the rate at which you're putting heat into the ocean, then it would further accelerate the melting.”
